Room 239/240: Recovery

[janet_fraiser]

Janet is sitting on the floor, medical supplies from her kit spread out around her. She is counting everything, and scribbling a list of supplies she needs to replenish on a sheet of paper sitting on a clipboard next to her.

That's fairly normal for burns. Numb all the time would be bad. It would mean that the nerves weren't regenerating. Your skin's going to be fairly sensitive for a while, though.

Can you take a voice-activated tape recorder to your classes so you don't have to take notes? I'm sure people will be able to help you write out your homework.

Oooh, tape recorder, I didn't even think of that. Good idea.

::looks over at Janet, concerned::

So, you're not feeling well? Is there... anything I can do to help? Seems kinda all noble of you to make sure everyone else is okay, but I don't want you hurtin' because of it...

[janet_fraiser]

I'll be fine once I've had a good night's sleep in a comfortable bed. *wry grin* I have things to do before I rest, though. *gestures to floor and spread out medical supplies* Such as take inventory and order new stock. Besides, I'd kill for a backrub right now and you're definitely under doctor's orders not to help out in that regard.

I should probably take a break and eat, though. Want something?

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Sure! But finger food is a bit of a no-go right now, sadly. I'm afraid I might be needing to take everything through a straw for a while... Just like the time when I had my jaw wired shut.... ::shudder::

I'll take burnt hands over massive oral surgery any day.

"Ugh," says Janet. "Nothing like a steady diet of nutrient shakes to sour you on a decent milkshake forever. Come on. I'll make you a peanut butter and jelly sandwich or something and help you eat it. You've got to be starving by now, and I know I am."

OOC: No trying to get Cally drunk 'til the hands heal! :)

Thanks... I really could use a sandwhich. And the help will be greatly appreciated. ::smile::

[ooc: Too late! Ha!]

[janet_fraiser]

No problem.

*makes sandwiches, puts them down on table*

So I think things are fairly quiet today. Thank God. We got Parker to the infirmary, though by the time she showed up there she was crankier than usual.

*starts to eat her sandwich, holds up the other for Cally to take a bite out of*

Which is saying something, don't you think?

::takes a big bite, and starts chewing::

You know... ::chew, chew:: I'd hate to see Parker in any mood ::chew:: that isn't her normal one. I might be traumatized for life. ::chew, swallow::

I kinda like the quiet, though... Especially cause it's a relaxed quiet... not the nervous, something's on the back of your neck quiet we had yesterday morning. ::smile::

This is probably the best sandwich I have ever tasted.

[janet_fraiser]

Parker's really nothing to worry about when she's cranky. Jack's been worse. Trust me.

*finishes sandwich more slowly than Cally, then gets out a glass of milk and finds a straw to go with it for her*

Thank God for quiet. Though I think I'm going to go watch sidekick tryouts later.

The best sandwich ever? *realizes* Oh, wait, I don't think you've ever had peanut butter and jelly before, have you? Any of you twelve colonies people. Food of the gods. Seriously.

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Well, I only ate a one bag of peanuts the whole of yesterday, too. I think almost anything would've tasted great after that... even the cafeteria food. But yes, definitely food of the gods. You'll have to show me how you make 'em once my hands are okay. ::smile::

::pause, confused look::

Sidekick try-outs? What're those?
